Spotty/OK
What do you like best about the product?
I like the fact that this program allows me to work remotely. It allows me to access everything on my computer at work from home. It provides quick and seamless access into the network and my account.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be very spotty at times. Sometimes I randomly lose connection at home, which can affect my work. At times I've lost my work product, because I lost connection mid progress (had not saved). Another aspect I dislike is if I walk away from my computer for more than 5 minutes, it automatically seems to disconnect. When this happens, I'm forced to log back in again.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
If I am having to attend to a matter at home during work hours, I am able to do so with the help of this software. I can login at any time from anywhere. As an attorney this allows me to have a flexible work schedule.
I am currently on my work computer (laptop is at home). Therefore, I'm unable to upload a screen shot. I'm happy to email it later today.

The ultimate firewall
What do you like best about the product?
Sonicwall is an extremely easy to use firewall. The settings are easy to configure even though initial setup may be challenging for your specific environment. Monthly maintenance and addition of settings is a breeze
What do you dislike about the product?
Initial configuration but that is expected.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sonicwall keeps us protected. We are very satisfied with our 2600, 2400, SMA400, SRA1600 and TZ500's
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great product that is easier to use than others on the market
Firewalls that work
What do you like best about the product?
Sonicwall has pretty decent support that if they can't solve it over the phone will do a webex session and collect data to replicate the issue in their lab environment and be able to work a solution up.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes with the new GUI for our firewall, changes do not save, which requires us to re-enter the data again.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our setup is 2 SonicWall NSA 5600s setup for HA failover in case of a failure on one. This minimizes downtime as the failover is seamless. This keeps the business operational with little to no downtime.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Sonicwall is a good company that understands how to design hardware and software to make firewalls that work. This product works great in our environment and meets our needs to secure our network and monitor the traffic that we have coming in and out of our network.

What do you dislike about the product?
My only dislike is when uploading and booting to new firmware glitches out as there is no way to repair that remotely.

VPN tunnels are a breeze with the sonicwalls, as well as adding an extra layer of antivirus.

These firewalls allow us to control traffic to our environments and they are great because they can be remotely managed for our sales offices.
